Set -rewrite=>1 (default) to return URLs that match what the user sent -(the original request URI). Set -rewrite->0 to return URLs that match +(the original request URI). Set -rewrite=>0 to return URLs that match the URL after mod_rewrite's rules have run. Because the additional path information only makes sense in the context of the rewritten URL, -rewrite is set to false when you request path info in the URL.
